45 Minute Violin and Viola Lessons
50
Private violin or viola lessons. I will start where you're at, whether that's figuring out how to rent or buy an instrument, or you're auditioning for the youth symphony. I focus on posture, theory, intonation, and tone production, then add vibrato, shifting, and double stops as your skills progress. My goal is for all of my students to be able to do whatever they want with their instruments. We also work on improvisation, ear training, classical music, fiddle music, pop and Disney music, and whatever else you have interest in!
Lessons are in my home just outside of Buckley, WA
